Student Participation

Television-Radio senior, Rosswill Lyons, and Jeremy Li, a Journalism junior, were competitively selected and attended the 30th Annual IRTS Multicultural Career Workshop in NYC. During this two day event, they were able to participate in Q & A with industry leaders, learn about opportunities in digital media, creative production, advertising, research, sales and marketing, as well as attend a career fair that included some of the top media companies. This conference "continues to be singled out by human resource professionals as one of the best places to find skilled students and recent graduates for job and internship opportunities."

"It was a great conference-workshop," commented Rosswill. "The panelists shared some of their experiences with us and provided us with advice. On the second day, we were interviewed by several media companies including NBC, FOX, Univision, CNN, HBO, Discovery Channel, and News12."
